[v3,11/41] mips: reuse asm-generic/barrier.h
...roArch design for that?
I suspect that it is more likely that we are talking past each other.
This stuff is subtle and although we have better ways of talking about
it than (say) ten years ago, it is subtle. Two ways of talking about
it are herd and ppcmem.
The overview of ppcmem (AKA armmem and cppmem) is here:

The intro to herd is here: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1308.6810v5.pdf
It may be downloaded here: http://diy.inria.fr/herd/
As a very rough rule of thumb, herd is faster and easier to use
and ppcmem is more precise.
So SYNC_RMB is intended to i...
